I'm potentially interested in writing a new backend target for
ocamlopt. I looked around in the Ocaml distribution subdirectory
"asmcomp" (which is where the target-specific portion of the backend
appears to be implemented), but there is not very much documentation
there. In particular, I'm interested in generating assembly that
will be piped through an assembler that is not "as."
Is this (readily) feasible? Just curious.
Thanks in advance.

I back this kind of request! I would be very interesting in re-using
parts of the compiler, and I believe many people would like to re-use
or change several parts of OCaml compiler. It would be great to have
somebody with a decent knowledge of the compiler put it down. Maybe
somebody did it already ?
